Are you thinking about moving to Australia? In this post, we’ve put together a list of the best cities
MELBOURNE
Melbourne has something different for every kind of atmosphere you’re looking for: from the restaurants of Chinatown and Brunswick to the bohemian vibe of the St. Kilda neighborhood, including the coastal town of Sandringham, the cultural and sporting offerings of South Bank, historic Fitzroy in the city’s northeast, the cafes of Richmond, and the classic family-friendly neighborhoods of Camberwell and Surrey Hills. It has a fairly extensive public transportation network, including trains, trams, and buses.
Melbourne has a strong automotive, aviation, and construction industry. Additionally, there is high demand for workers in the fields of education, engineering, nursing, financial services, technology, and communications. It is a city very open to welcoming immigrants, and the unemployment rate is quite low.
The average monthly cost of living for a typical family is approximately AUD 7,500, including rent.
ADELAIDE
North Brighton is considered one of the best suburbs to live in Australia, thanks to its educational institutions and green spaces near the ocean. Other famous suburbs include Glenelg, Aberfoyle Park, Henley Beach South, Semaphore, Seacliff, Belair, and Banksia Park.
Adelaide is very easy to get around, whether by car, train, tram, bus, or taxi. If you’re on vacation, your best option is to get the Adelaide Metro Visitor Pass. It costs AUD 26.60 and allows you to travel as much as you want for three consecutive days. Plus, it comes with maps and tourist guides, and you can reload it just like a regular Metrocard. Some tram routes, such as Adelaide Entertainment Centre-South Terrace, are free. By ferry, you can reach Penneshaw (Kangaroo Islands) in 2 hours. It’s a paradise in the middle of the sea!
Most foreigners find work quickly in the fields of healthcare, education, public administration, manufacturing, and retail.
PERTH
In Northbridge and Mt Lawley, you’ll find the largest selection of bars and ethnic restaurants, as well as theaters, galleries, movie theaters, and bookstores. Scarborough Beach and Cottesloe Beach are two of Perth’s best beaches. Other neighborhoods popular with travelers include Leederville, Fremantle, Guildford, Subiaco, Burswood, East Perth, and North Perth.
There are two bus networks (Transperth and CAT) that connect the city and its surroundings. In the city center, you can ride certain lines completely free of charge. The rail network includes a free transit zone if you have SmartRider tickets (you can get them from the machines at the stations). Additionally, a ferry connects Barrack Street Jetty with Mends Street Jetty (South Perth and the city zoo) and with Elizabeth Quay.
In Perth, the strongest sectors are mining, tourism, and industry. There is also high demand for workers in financial services, healthcare, and information and communication technologies. The average monthly cost of living for a typical family is approximately AUD 7,000, including rent.
In Perth, you can enjoy the beach even in winter. Plus, it’s a very safe city with plenty of free public transportation options. In some neighborhoods, you’ll find a great surfer and hippie vibe that gives the area a very special local character.
Salaries are high, although it’s an expensive city to live in, especially if you’re a student.
BRISBANE
Brisbane will welcome you with a wide range of possibilities. Explore the vintage shops in Paddington and admire its architecture. Dine at the cafes and restaurants in Teneriffe and New Farm. Discover the revitalized West End and enjoy the old movie theaters and art galleries in Bulimba.
In Shorncliffe and Sangate, you’ll find the best beaches. However, if you want to enjoy peace and nature, you can’t miss Samford. It’s just 40 minutes from downtown Brisbane and boasts the best green spaces on the border between the city and the countryside. If you’re planning to move, Sunnybank is the most affordable neighborhood. Wilston, Grange, Clayfield, Ascot, and Hamilton have a much more homey atmosphere, especially if you’re moving with your family.
In Brisbane, you have plenty of opportunities to find work in the hospitality, tourism, healthcare, finance, retail, and manufacturing sectors.
The public transportation system includes ferries, buses, trams, trains, subways, public bicycles, and CityCats (a type of water taxi). Several bus and ferry routes are free, so transportation isn’t too expensive. The Translink system gives you access to almost all of these options, and you can transfer between them with a single ticket. Although you can use traditional paper tickets, it’s better to use the “go card” to save money (it costs AUD 10 per day). Other options like the SeeQ Card or Go Explore Card are designed specifically for travelers, as they come with maps and guides.
The average monthly cost of living for a typical family is approximately AUD 7,100 (including rent)
SYDNEY
Sydney will welcome you with a wealth of options. The best dining scene is in Surry Hills, while Newtown stands out for its cultural and artistic life. Bondi Beach and Manly Beach are the two most famous beaches. You can also explore the gay neighborhood of Darlinghurst, the historic The Rocks, or the multicultural areas of Chatswood, Western Sydney, Parramatta, Macarthur, and the Blue Mountains.
Darling Harbour is a favorite destination for its famous fireworks show over the water, which takes place between May and October. Chippendale is the quintessential university hangout, while Potts Point retains its classic charm and green spaces amid the city’s hustle and bustle.
It has an extensive network of trains, buses, and ferries that you can access with the Opal card.
Sydney is one of the world’s largest economies, particularly due to its financial and professional services, goods production, information and communication technologies, tourism, research and education, and cultural industries.
Sydney is one of the most expensive cities in the world. Including rent, the average household expenditure is approximately AUD 9,300.
